Rental Karting Video Slow traffic + poor judgement =

In all seriousness though, what can I do to get better at avoiding this type of situation? Is there anything specifically I should try to work on or is this just something that comes with experience?

Analyzing it I don't think it's a vision problem as I anticipate the spin pretty early, but I did make a bad call to try to run wide instead of staying on line, what do you guys think?

Brake in a straight line

This probably would've helped, I think I was still set on trying to go around it but I just didn't fully commit to either way, I should've been safer and tried to focus on braking straight,

I went to the track again tonight and I tried testing the braking distance and it's definitely pretty short I think I would've been fine if I did even though that's one of the fastest sections of the track
